CDDRL's Stoner-Weiss hosts Stanford Book Salon

Kathryn Stoner, CDDRL associate director for research, is Stanford Book Salon host for the month of February 2007. The Book Salon is an online book program that reaches about 4,100 Stanford alumni. Stoner-Weiss volunteered to host the book The Desert Queen by Janet Wallach, "an important book that should be of interest to anyone wondering about the history of conflict in the Middle East, and the formation of Iraq in particular."
